FWIW I have one of these too and had some issues with 'laggy' feeling brakes initially, turned out that the brake pads were not toed in properly (they were toed too much hence the lag as the entire pad made contact) and I found it made a big difference once I got that setup right.

Nice representing on the older technology! Shoes others that the latest tech. is no substitute for a good set of legs.

What was the year and model of the Giant?

Been making a few tweaks to my setup this year.

Used it as it appears here at Challenge Penticton Full distance tri and rode into 5th overall on the bike.

It's not the most expensive or latest technology, but it can get the job done!

Also tied for first at the local time trials lately the week before ( never thought that would happen ) less the aero bento and the aero bottle, just had a standard bottle in there.

Used a piece of pvc, electrical tape and 2 zip-ties for the computer mount which tucks neatle in behind the bottle, which fills the gap between my arms nicely.

Got the bike used 5 years ago ( no wheelset ) got the wheelset used this year, and built the disc cover myself.

I still have room to improve on the engine, it will be interesting what I can do next season!

2009 giant trinity alliance 2

Guy used it in 2009 and 2010, but moved bike shops, so I bought it at the end of the 2010 season for $750 with no wheelset, absolute steal imo.

It was my first bike too as an adult, and LOVED it. Not sure I will ever get rid of it now.

I have always loved the original paint scheme of the E-118.

Recently bought this one used. Certainly a step up from my old, beaten down aluminium sora bike!

Also, fizik bar tape seems to be impossible to get dirty.

2014 Trek Speed Concept. Felt like the bike needed a little flash-so I added the blue stripes. The whole red and blue flo combo was more of an accident than on purpose. I thought it looked kinda cool, and was easier to spot in transition-so I figured I would leave it for now.
-Yes, I know it is in the small ring.
-No, I am not really that fast. I got it last year in December (14) at a price I couldn't refuse. I do miss my specialized transition, but this thing is pretty amazing.

I'll second that... I've got their white tape on my road bike, and after a full season of riding it still looks brand new.

HOLY GAP BATMAN! That Torhans needs to be moved closer otherwise it's slowing you down. May want to move to a horizontal BTA option if you're serious about aerodynamic savings.

Recently finished building up new 2016 S-works tarmac



First outing in Majorca was great, just needs a little more tweaking on the bar position.

Exactly that, the small frame (mine is a medium) has 25mm shorter head tube and with an ongoing back issue, I feared it would be a little too much for me.

The saddle height is lower than 'suggested' on my fit by about 10mm, but I am more comfortable, and more powerful (by feel and no loss of power via PM) in that position.

I have to admit, it does look a little off in that picture, but it sure feels comfortable!
